It will be rolled out in two phases, with the first being a more basic app, and the second including personalisation, reporting functions, connections with other Notts public services and local news sites.

A council report on the issue said: “The aim of the MyNotts app is to make it easier and improve engagement and access to council information, services and wider Nottinghamshire organisations.

“In reviewing processes and considering technological and automated developments, consideration will be given to the needs and abilities of all residents to access services to ensure that any approaches developed do not disadvantage groups.”

However some frustration was voiced by councillors over how long the scheme was taking.
